Poem

Expectations

she was stuck in a nightmare,

she was stuck in a horror,

she was stuck in a film,

that just repeated over

she was being played with in her mind,

like a puppet on strings,

her life was rewinding,

and being played over and over

there was no end,

repeating the mistakes,

she was like a pencil,

that wasn't allowed to a have an eraser

she was crowded by fear,

she couldn't stop,

she didn't know how,

she is now scarred

the memories scare her,

no one can bare her,

it wasn't her fault,

and the blame came endlessly 

she wasn't "enough"

she wasn't what was expected,

she wasn't perfect,

but in the end you aren't either
